This week, the Federal Reserve’s significant interest rate cut has set the stage for a new monetary era, sparking both excitement and uncertainty among investors. As bond traders anticipated a larger reduction, two-year Treasury yields dropped to a two-year low of 3.5%, down from 5% in April.. This shift has revived risk appetite in the equity market, with traders flocking to leveraged stocks like small caps, betting on sustained economic growth.

Jerome Powell’s decision supports the bulls hoping for a soft landing after the Fed’s inflation-tightening campaign. However, post-Fed market reactions have been mixed, with both bonds and stocks erasing intraday gains. While tech megacaps regained leadership, two-year Treasury yields remained near 3.6%, and 10-year rates hit a two-week high.
